    :lol::rofl:patsch Dana White's word means absolutely nothing. Pink-faced potty-mouthed super-douche.

    It's kinda sad. Dana White is changing his tune, wish it would have happened when Couture was trying to fight Fedor.

    Who wants to see Mir welcome Josh back?

    If not for that PED suspension, they probably would've fought for the title back then.

    Mir and Barnett would work. As would Barnett Vs The Reem.

    Big deals with Fox need big names. Barnett is huge in Japan and Brazil and pretty well known for Joe public UFC. This is good for the UFC and for fight fans. Well.... no one else is going to be overhead suplexing HW like old Josh.

    I dont understand why people always thinks its Dana that has the final say in everything he owns ****ing 9 % of the company.
    Barnett could be a fun addition in the UFC roster lets hope he delivers some good fights

    He adds depth, which is needed after fighters like Brock and Carwin have retired. I don't envision him winning the title but he'll provide a rough ride.

    There are a lot of good match-ups if Josh can keep his **** clean. I'd like to watch him vs Mir, Nelson, Big Foot, Werdum, Overeem, Dos Santos...
